Many people believe that they will be happy once they arrive at some specific goal they set for themselves. However, more often than not, once you arrive “there” you will still feel dissatisfied, and move your “there” vision to yet another point in the future. By always chasing after another “there,” you are never really appreciating what you already have right “here.” It is important for human beings to keep sober-minded about the age-old drive to look beyond the place where you now stand. On one hand, your life is enhanced by your dreams and aspirations. On the other hand, these drives can pull you farther and farther from your enjoyment of your life right now. By learning the lessons of gratitude and abundance, you can bring yourself closer to fulfilling the challenge of living in the present.(选自 “There” Is No Better th an “Here” 知足者常乐 mtizt.com注）

Once learning stops, vegetation sets in. It is a common fallacy to regard school as the only workshop for the acquisition of knowledge. On the contrary, learning should be a never-ending process, from the cradle to the grave. With the world ever changing so fast, the cease from learning for just a few days will make a person lag behind. What’s worse, the animalistic instinct dormant deep in our sub-consciousness will come to life, weakening our will to pursue our noble ideal, sapping our determination to sweep away  obstacles to our success and strangling our desire for the refinement of our character. Lack of learning will inevitably lead to the stagnation of the mind, or even worse, its fossilization. Therefore, to stay mentally young, we have to take learning as a lifelong career.(选自《学习，一生的事业》 mtizt.com注）

过去 50 年其实并不是发明创新的黄金时期。从 1900 年到 1950 年，改变人类 生活的发明有汽车、飞机、电话、收音机、电视机——当然还有核武器和计算机。 而近 50 年来，只有为数不多的发明。难道发明的源泉已经枯竭了吗？答案并非如 此。事实上，发明的新时代刚刚开始。（选自《发明创造》 mtizt.com注）

不同的篇章、体裁在直译与意译的趋向程度上往往有所不同。一般来说，文献 类和新闻报道的翻译多采用直译，因为翻译这类文献关键在于译文的准确性；而 对诗歌散文、戏剧电影、小说传记等以情动人的作品，翻译时应多采用意译，以 充分再现原文的意境情趣。（选自 英语四级翻译练习 mtizt.com注）
